Re: FSA is not Post-Flood

As I said before, it's not impossible to justify. It just doesn't seem as likely though. Especially when you add it all together.

Quote:
With all this in game "proof" your giving, id think you have more sense than to 'confirm' that DRI is Death Mountain.
Be sensible - DRI is heavily suggested to be Death Mountain... unless a new mountain that is in the same place of DM randomly appeared from nowhere.

Quote:
Zora's mentioned even by item in PH is significant because of the fact that they are thought to be extinct, how would artifacts from them still be around?
Look at Medli's harp. Who's was that? It was an artifact from Laruto... a Zora.

Quote:
FSA pre TP makes no sense
Why?

Quote:
why are the gerudos nice after OoT, what happened to OoT Ganondorf, if u believe that he is the same, then why does nobody know about him, how does he become Ganon, be sealed in the FS and then be in place for the TP backstory.
Largely explained in my last post. Point that you're missing though, is that the point of the thread was not to give the final and definate answer to where FSA goes (otherwise I would call the thread "FSA goes here *points*"). I'm just showing why a post flood theory makes very little to no sense.

Spoken about above somewhere. Still don't see why a Zora in 'another world' should mean much either.

Quote:
But not why the Gerudo aren't renowned for being wicked under Ganondorf's leadership, why no one knows of his exploits (he was a renowned murderer in OoT), and why the benevolent Zoras have apparently lost their homeland to the evil Zoras.
See last post.

*cough*TFPRR*cough*
Again... See above.

Quote:
"Wash away this ancient land of Hyrule!"
Sounds like you're trying to twist words out of meaning here. Still doesn't explain then, why this 'washed away ancient Hyrule' still has ruins (including books and legends etc) by the time of aLttP.

Quote:
"It will not be Hyrule."
Not "you can't name it Hyrule."
Daphnes is remarking that none of their attempts to recreate Hyrule will match the splendour of the holy land of Hyrule.
You're taking this quote out of context...
TETRA: "The land that will be the next Hyrule! So..."
KING: "Ah, but child... That land will not be Hyrule."
The interjection suggests that the King disagrees with her, and that the land will not be the 'next Hyrule' as she put it.

Quote:
[*]Death Mountain magically spawned a second peak.
We don't see all of OoT map.
Quote:
[*]The Lost Woods are now in the northwest, and the forestlands to the southeast have been partially cut down and replaced with a village.
Things like this happen over time (usually without a worldwide flood).
Quote:
[*]Lake Hylia is now at the source of the river instead of at the mouth.
Yet in aLttP where the map is very similar, it's clearly where we see it in OoT.
Quote:
[*]Kakariko Village has vacated the gorge nestled against Death Mountain and moved nearby the northwestern forest.[*]None of the temples from OoT appear in any form in FSA.[*]Vaati is the villain at large, and believed to be the King of Darkness.[*]The regions of Hyrule are largely divided by water, almost as if each region was once its own island.
The rest of these points mean little. Simple points such as above are the result of things changing, or things on the OoT that could not be seen before being seen now (such as rivers etc). Theres nothing there that is even remotely convincing.

Zelda sure likes the idea of naming the new land Hyrule.
But the complete opposite to what you just said is implied. It's clear that the world was flooded and Hyrule washed away. It's clear that the King interjected to Tetra calling the next place the New Hyrule.

Quote:
Reincarnation is a common theme in Zelda (others would call it repetitaveness). Ages pass and the world is still medievall/reneisance like, the same people pop up in every game, and so do the same places.
A whole land "resurfacing" from the oceans may sound strange at first, but hey it's a fantasy game and it certainlly fits with the overall theme of the Zelda games.
But compare this to the obvious similarities between OoT and FSA in terms of where people are living etc. This should be a no brainer given the overwhelming number of things that would have to 'happen' to go back to OoT days.
